The United States Institute of Peace is an independent,

the nation's capacity to promote the peaceful resolution
of international conflict. Fellowships are awarded
annually to scholars and practitioners from a variety
of professions, including college and university faculty,
journalists, diplomats, writers, educators, military
officers, international negotiators and lawyers. The
Institute funds projects related to preventive diplomacy,
ethnic and regional conflicts, peacekeeping and peace
operations, peace settlements, post-conflict reconstruction
and reconciliation, democratization and the rule of
law, cross-cultural negotiations, nonviolent social
movements, U.S. foreign policy in the 21st century,
and related topics. Fellows reside at the Institute
for a period of up to ten months to conduct research
on their projects, consult with staff, and contribute
to the ongoing work of the Institute. Projects which
demonstrate relevance to current policy debates will
be highly competitive. The fellowship award includes
a stipend, an office with computer and voicemail, and
a part-time research assistant. The competition is
open to citizens of all nations. Women and members
of minorities are especially encouraged to apply. All
